[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]3rd generation here.  My parents and grandparents refer to DC as the District.  Sometimes I do too, but mainly we call it DC or just, downtown (we now live in the suburbs).  “Downtown” simply refers to DC and is not neighborhood specific at all.  We’ve never, ever used “DMV”.  If anything, we say “the DC area” when talking to those who live elsewhere.

Really sick of transplants insisting those of us who have lived here for generations are somehow using the wrong terminology.  [/quote]

Oh get over yourself.

- 3rd generation New Yorker who has lived here for 15 years, would never do this to someone who was a newer New Yorker, and thinks you’re a PITA [/quote]

Hey PP, go back to NYC--oh yeah you won't b/c it SUX now.[/quote]

Go away, MAGA. Sorry you can’t afford to live in Manhattan. I love it there; I’m only here for my job. [/quote]

Oh honey, nobody wants to live in NYC but you keep believing the rest of the country is envious of you all :roll: [/quote]

Damn, better tell that to the 8.4 million people who live there. Better also tell that to the real estate market, which is constantly ridiculously expensive, especially in Manhattan. [/quote]
